Yes submarine.. the 292 was the uber bestest engine ever.
454 (7.43L) sparker vs. a 6.2L naturally aspirated diesel? not really apples to apples.....
There was a reason in 2004 that the 6.6L Duramax was tow rated for an additional 5,000 lbs over the 8.1L Vortec [They are backed by the EXACT same allison A1000 transmission]
(even though the 8.1 vortec made more HP and torque than the 6.6)
454 (7.4L) sparkers are just slobber-knockers.... most 454's get spanked in a race by 5.3 small blocks these days {Since thats you were talking about}
The 292 was a school bus/dump truck engine in the 70's like the 454.
The 4BT is comparable with a chevy 350 in terms of performance moving a truck.
4BT/TH400 will beat a 292/TH350 in a race in a same weighted truck.
Sorry you don't understand torque curves.. but please stop trolling on the forum... (in this and other posts we've noticed recently on your posts).
6.0L gasser will not outpull a 12V cummins.... lol troll 6.0L' gassers at a truck pull? not exactly
